Not to change the subject. Aren't there some guys on the Delta N list that are over 65? If so, since there will no longer be a seat for them once the 747-200 is gone, would they be eligible for perps? For the company would it not make sense to wait until they are forced out before offering perps? For those of you over 65, I am not a senior citizen hater. My parents are senior citizens and I love them very much.

Cold day in he!!

There is absolutely no reason for it. MEM is already to close to ATL.
We do not want a hub where we need to compete with two other major airlines. We only do that in NYC and LAX.
Remember that the Wright Amendment is going away slowly. AMR is going to be take to the cleaners.

I could see a larger presence, but that is about it. I am waiting for the 738 to go there from LAX!

Buzz you got a great deal out there on the 73N I know where I would sit, so you must be doing day turns or very easy trips.
I would keep that a secret too!

LOL. Actually, no, lots of red eyes and just about everything goes to JFK. It was pretty good about a year ago. I think the SLC and CVG guys are ripping off all of the good trips.
